Apex Legends: Devs Speak up on Crossplay Issues

“Wanted to clear something up about Apex Legends cross-play. You will only be in PC crossplay lobbies if you have a PC player on your team.
“Have been seeing lots of console players worrying about this, but don’t. Everyone should be excited. So no more ‘not crossplay, PC is gonna dominate us’.”
That clears up all the mess right away. Console players will only be matched with PC players if they opt for it. So, playing for fun is not ruined and competitive games go on just fine! Cheerio!
